What is the name of 10 dashlakshan
The 10 virtues are called Das Lakshan (Das Lakshana). In Digambar tradition they are observed as a ten-day Das Lakshan Parva during Paryushan, with each day dedicated to one virtue.
The ten names are:
- Uttam Kshama — Supreme Forgiveness
- Uttam Mardava — Supreme Humility
- Uttam Arjava — Supreme Straightforwardness
- Uttam Shaucha — Supreme Purity/Contentment
- Uttam Satya — Supreme Truth
- Uttam Sanyam — Supreme Self-restraint
- Uttam Tap — Supreme Austerity
- Uttam Tyag — Supreme Renunciation
- Uttam Akinchanya — Supreme Non-attachment
- Uttam Brahmacharya — Supreme Celibacy
Notes:
- Digambar Jains traditionally frame these as the ten days of Das Lakshan Parva.
- Shwetambar Jains celebrate Paryushan (often 8 days) with similar emphasis, focusing on the same virtues in spirit.
